Summary

This licensing brief addresses the commonly asked questions about licensing the Windows operating system and

Microsoft Office to run on the Macintosh.

This replaces a previous version published in August 2015. It has been updated to reflect Windows 10 and Office 2019

for Mac.

Details

Licensing of the Windows operating system for the Mac

Microsoft distinguishes between a full operating system that complete and bootable and an upgrade operating

system that installed over a previously installed full operating system.

Volume Licensing brief

Licensing Windows and Microsoft Office for use on the

Macintosh

October 2018 2

Licensing Windows and Microsoft Office for use on a Mac

Full Windows operating system licenses ar available through Microsoft Volume Licensing programs. You can

obtain full Windows operating system licenses by having Windows preinstalled on your PCs by the Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). For existing PCs with a licensed and installed Qualifying Operating System, you can

purchase the Windows 10 Pro Upgrade license or Windows 10 Enterprise Upgrade license through Volume Licensing.

The Apple Macintosh operating system is considered a Qualifying Operating System, meaning you can purchase the

Windows 10 Pro Upgrade license or Windows 10 Enterprise Upgrade license for Macs that have a licensed and

installed Mac operating system.

Scenarios

Your options for licensing Windows to run on a Mac depend on the specific scenario. The following explains the most

common scenarios.

Note: If you require full installation media for deploying your Windows upgrade acquired through Volume Licensing, you may download the files from the Microsoft Volume Licensing

Service Center (VLSC) or order physical media through your Microsoft reseller.

Scenario 1: Installing and running Windows as a second full operating system under Apple Boot Camp on a Mac

You can install Windows as a second full operating system on a Mac using Apple Boot Camp in addition to the

already installed Mac operating system. To acquire the necessary Windows software license to accommodate this

scenariowhich allows you to keep the Mac operating system on the computerpurchase Windows Enterprise

Upgrade with Software Assurance through Volume Licensing. Software Assurance for Windows allows you to run

Windows Enterprise on a computer even if the Qualifying Operating System is still installed and running on that

computer.

Alternatively, if the user is licensed with Windows Software Assurance per User or Windows Virtual Desktop Access

(VDA) per User, Windows Enterprise can be installed locally if the Mac is licensed for Windows 7/8/8.1/10 Pro.

October 2018 3

Figure 1: Installing and running Windows as a second full operating system under Apple Boot Camp on a Mac

Scenario 2: Installing Windows to run with third-party virtualization software

Another option for running Windows on a Mac is to install Windows as a second full operating system to run as a

guest operating system in a virtual machine. In this scenario, the full Windows operating system must be licensed and

installed. Like with Scenario 1, you can acquire the necessary license for this scenario by purchasing Windows 10

Enterprise Upgrade with Software Assurance through Volume Licensing.

Alternatively, if the user is licensed with Windows Software Assurance per User or Windows Virtual Desktop Access

(VDA) per User, Windows Enterprise can be installed in a virtual machine if the Mac is also licensed for Windows

7/8/8.1/10 Pro.

October 2018 5

Licensing Windows and Microsoft Office for use on a Mac Scenario 3: Replacing the Mac operating system with (upgrading to) Windows

Note: This is a common scenario due to technical difficulty, but it is allowed under the terms of Microsoft Volume Licensing.

If you purchased a Windows Pro Upgrade license or Windows 10 Enterprise Upgrade license (without Software

Assurance) for your Mac, the terms of the upgrade license require that you first remove the Qualifying Operating

System (for example, Mac operating system) before you can deploy the Windows Pro or Windows Enterprise

Upgrade. Because the Windows upgrade software designed to install over a non-Windows operating system,

Volume Licensing customers can request media (software) for the full Windows operating system from Microsoft to

perform this upgrade.

Figure 3: Replacing Mac OS with Windows

Scenario 4: Accessing a Windows virtual machine (VM) remotely from a Mac

By licensing the Mac or the user with the Windows Virtual Desktop Access (VDA) subscription license, you receive

rights to remotely access a Windows virtual machine running on server in the data center through Virtual Desktop

Infrastructure (VDI).

Note: Assigning Windows Enterprise Upgrade with Software Assurance to the device would also cover VDI access.

Licensed D

rough Office 365*), each license must be assigned to a single user before using the software.

When acquired under a Volume Licensing agreement, licenses for the Microsoft Office products are considered

Platform Independent Licenses. These include Microsoft Office Standard for Windows, Microsoft Office Professional

Plus for Windows, Office for Mac, and the individual Microsoft Office programs: Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel

spreadsheet software, Microsoft PowerPoint presentation graphics program, and Microsoft Outlook messaging and

collaboration client software for both Windows and Mac.

You can use software under a Platform Independent License on any computer platform (for example, PC or Mac) as

long as the version used is the same or earlier than the originally licensed product version. For example, if you have a

license for Office Standard 2016 for Windows, you can use Office Standard 2013 for Windows or Office for Mac 2011,

but you cannot use Office for Mac 2019. The exception is if you had active Software Assurance coverage on Office

Standard 2016 for Windows at the time Office for Mac 2019 was released.

Under Volume Licensing, you also have the right to install and use any number of copies of the software and of any

prior version of the software on the Licensed Device in physical and/or virtual environments.

October 2018 7

Licensing Windows and Microsoft Office for use on a Mac

In the context of Platform Independent Licenses, you can run one or more copies of a different available platform

version of the product instead of the version licensed. Again, the version must be the same or earlier than the

originally licensed product version. It must also be run on the same Licensed Device.

The components of a product suite can vary by platform version. As a result, if youexercising this cross-platform

right, you can use only the components common to both platform versions. For example, if a customer licensed with

Office 2016 for Mac Standard chooses to run Office Standard 2013, the customer may run only the components that

are included with Office Standard 2013. For example, they do have the right to run Lync, but they do have the right

to run OneNote. Licensed product Equivalent edition under platform independence

Frequently asked questions

1. As a Volume Licensing customer, what license do I need to run Microsoft Office for Windows on a Mac under

Boot Camp or use a third-party virtualization program?

Licensing Windows and Microsoft Office for use on a Mac

2. If I have a license for Office 2016 for Mac Standard, am I licensed to run Microsoft Office 2013 for Windows on my

Mac?

and use any prior version of Microsoft Office, including Microsoft Office 2013, on the Licensed Device, regardless

of platform.

Because the components of a product suite can vary by platform version, when exercising this cross-platform

right, you can use only the components common to both platform versions. For example, if a customer licensed

with Office 2016 for Mac Standard chooses to run Office Standard 2013, the customer may only run the

components that are included with Office Standard 2013. For example, they have the right to run Lync, but

they do have the right to run OneNote.

3. I have a license for Office for Mac 2011 with active Software Assurance. May I run Office 2013 for Windows on my

Apple Boot Camp or a virtual environment?

physical or virtual environment. Again, you can run only the components of a product corresponding to the

components of the equivalent platform version licensed for.

6. I an Enrollment for Education Solutions (EES) customer with the Education Desktop Platform. Can I install and

run Windows as a second full operating system under Apple Boot Camp on my Mac? And which versions of

Microsoft Office can I use on my Mac?

without uninstalling the Mac operating system. Under the Education Desktop Platform license, you can install and

run either Microsoft Office 2013 for Windows, Office 2016 for Mac Standard, or both on your Mac.
